--ATLAS OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. 1876.
I found this map today at the library. Neiting Grove . . . don't think I have ever run across that name. Beeset [sic] Grove on this map is still a station. Which I think means a train station or depot is still located there in 1876. And the Lake Shore District in Section 8, 7 and 6 is a "Lake" in this atlas. At one time this must have been a very significant body of water. Lots of schools also. And a church in Section 27.
